[Intro]

C  Em  Emaddb13 Em    x2


[Verse 1]

C
   Here's a little gift
Em         Emaddb13  Em
   From me to        you
C
   A place to store your dreams
Em            Emaddb13  Em
   And your secrets     too

[Chorus]

Am                          Em
   When the world goes dark
Am                         G
  I'll always be close by
C                            G
  To hear your dreams unfold,
C                       Em
  Hold you when you cry
Am                  Em
  As you walk away,
Am                   
  Let go of my hand
G                                Gsus4  G
  Smile as you turn for one last look     and know you understand

[Instrumental]

C  Em  Emaddb13 Em    x2

[Verse 2]

C
   Listen to the song
Em                    Emaddb13  Em
   and where it takes your      soul
C
   Watch the dancer spin around
Em            Emaddb13  Em
   a thousand times     more

[Chorus]
Am                              Em
   I've traveled across the sea
Am                        G
   Just to bring you this
C                         G
   An unconditional waltz
C                     Em
   With a loving kiss
Am                       Em
   I know I've been away
Am                       
   And for way too long
G                               Gsus4  G  
   I need you now more than ever         before the music is over

[Outro]
  C                     Em           Emaddb13  Em
I want you to know this song's for you
  C                       Em     Emaddb13   Em
I want you to know that I love you
  C                     Em           Emaddb13  Em
I want you to know this song's for you
